Method and apparatus for monitoring vehicle status
First Claim
1. An apparatus for monitoring a status of a vehicle, the apparatus determining whether the vehicle is in an abnormal status by comparing an impact value detected by a detecting unit that detects an impact on the vehicle with a predetermined threshold value, the apparatus comprising:
- a first determining unit that determines whether the impact value detected is over at least one threshold value from among a plurality of threshold values; and
a second determining unit that, when the first determining unit determines that the impact value is over the at least one threshold value, continues to monitor a status of the vehicle, and determines whether the vehicle is in an abnormal status.

Abstract
An apparatus for monitoring a status of a vehicle, which determines whether the vehicle is in an abnormal status by comparing an impact value detected by a detecting unit that detects an impact on the vehicle with a predetermined threshold value, includes a first determining unit that determines whether the impact value detected is over at least one threshold value from among a plurality of threshold values; and a second determining unit that, when the first determining unit determines that the impact value is over the at least one threshold value, continues to monitor a status of the vehicle, and determines whether the vehicle is in an abnormal status.
